Roulette, is one of the easiest to bet on and the hardest to win, of all the games in the casino.  As it is more about luck and chance than any skill it is difficult to win at roulette table. It is again a type of gambling game played in casinos but it is a mechanical device. With the flashy colors and action surrounding the roulette wheels it seems the most glamorous to the crowd. The roulette table consists of a roulette wheel and a roulette layout. The betting area on the table is called a layout. The roulette wheel has a ball track where the ball spins and it is the other track. Then there is a bias wheel which has all the number pockets. The innermost track of the wheel is stationary. With the start of the play, the dealer or the croupier (French word for dealer) here, spins the wheel and drops the ball in the rotating disc later. When the wheel is coming to a stop the ball drops in one of the numbered pockets and that is the winning number or color. Usually up to 8 players can play on a roulette table. The dealer is the one who spins the wheels, handles the bets and make the payouts.
